Back in less than 2 weeks, October 15-28, Pattaya only, was gonna stay in BKK for 2 nights, but scrapped it, knew I would be pining for Pattaya! 555

Last trip in July I came back Business Class with Singapore Airlines as a treat for my birthday, well now I'm addicted, awesome service! I was going to come back with Thai Business class, but was surprised that SQ was actually cheaper and had a better lounge at BKK (I actually prefer it to the one in Changi also).

This time will be heading over on the new SQ A350, then A330 and back on 787-10 and 777 (seats are same on A350 & 777, which I had before, but are more like booths with lie flat beds). Think I'm more excited about the flight than the rest of the trip, well, for the moment anyway! 555

When you are flying business on an Asian Airline long haul flight to Asia
It really is the start of your holiday as soon as you get to the airport

^ I have had dinner at "Kata Rocks" right on the rocks...a friend was staying in a villa there (iirc the villa was US$1K+ per night) and dining out on the rocks it is something they offer...so he organised it for his family and invited me along...it was pretty fab, but all I can say is that I am glad i was not picking up the tab...555

My wife is going to be thrilled there's a decent chance I will be watching my Red Sox almost every morning at 8am on my holiday 5555

They are in the baseball playoffs and have a good chance of going deep into it

My GF had no sense of humor when I used to say at 10pm when the midweek games were on, I am going down the road to watch the football, and arrive home at 5.00am when the game had finished. Had she asked what time the game finished, I would have told her. But she never asked 555555.

M26, at least you could watch it in the room at 8am in the morning
All the bars in most of the hotels I have stayed in in Thailand close before the games start at 2-3.00am (let alone have the TV on), so no choice other than going out.

My wife certainly knew I was a Boston sports fanatic
I've watched games all over Thailand in an empty bar/hotel lobbies/everywhere at 1am,4am....

But I don't think she understood how much sports I watch overall until she came to Canada
When I am watching NBA every night when Boston isn't playing, or the all day Sunday NFL games, or 162 Boston Red Sox games on every night

All that was a bit much for her 555

As for these games, the Red Sox might not even make it past this week! But if they do, I will be watching the games on my Ipad at the pool

Another story

My wife wanted me to take her to Dreamworld Amusement Park in outskirts of BKK for ever
I put it off for years, and finally we decided to go

The Patriots were on at 4am, so I went out to the bars came home at 4am and watched until 7am

9am alarm went off to wake up to go to Dreamworld
I offered her 10k baht to not make me go
She wouldn't accept it!
